Sex differences in exercise efficacy to improve cognition: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials in older humans
TLDR
It is suggested that women's executive processes may benefit more from exercise than men, and aerobic training led to greater benefits than resistance training in global cognitive function and executive functions, while multimodal combinedTraining led togreat benefits than aerobic training for global Cognitive function, episodic memory, and word fluency.About:

Lifestyle interventions to prevent cognitive impairment, dementia and Alzheimer disease.
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the current knowledge of lifestyle-related risk factors and results from novel trials aiming to prevent cognitive decline and dementia is presented, including the World Wide FINGERS network, which aims to harmonize studies on dementia prevention, generate high-quality scientific evidence and promote its implementation.

Applications of Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) Neuroimaging in Exercise⁻Cognition Science: A Systematic, Methodology-Focused Review.
TL;DR: This review aims to summarize the current methodological knowledge about fNIRS application in studies measuring the cortical hemodynamic responses during cognitive testing, and in cross-sectional studies accounting for the physical fitness level of their participants.
Lifestyle interventions to prevent cognitive impairment, dementia and Alzheimer disease
TL;DR: The first large randomized controlled trials of multidomain lifestyle interventions to prevent cognitive impairment have been completed, and the results suggest that targeting interventions to individuals at risk of dementia is an effective strategy.

TL;DR: Results demonstrate that both age and BDNF serum levels are important factors to consider when investigating the mechanisms by which exercise interventions influence cognitive outcomes, particularly in elderly populations.

The Roles of Oestrogen in the Male
TL;DR: It is argued that many of the effects of oestrogens in the male might stem from its local production and action and, furthermore, that the balance in action between androgens and oestosterone might be of central importance at many oestrogen target sites.

TL;DR: The findings differ from previous clinical trials in showing increases in brain volume and improvements in cognition with a largely non-aerobic exercise (Tai Chi) and intellectual stimulation through social interaction was associated with increases inbrain volume as well as with some cognitive improvements.

Exercise, Fitness, and Neurocognitive Function in Older Adults: The “Selective Improvement” and “Cardiovascular Fitness” Hypotheses
TL;DR: Aerobic exercise in older adults can have a beneficial effect on the performance of speeded tasks that rely heavily on executive control, and improvements in aerobic fitness do not appear to be a prerequisite for this beneficial effect.
